Georgetown: Former acting Commissioner of Police assistant commissioner David Ramnarine who was bypassed for the top spot and had five of his juniors promoted ahead of him has sought early retirement, Minister of Public Security confirmed.
The minister maintained that the letter he received from Ramnarine was one seeking early retirement and not a letter of resignation.
Ramnarine is 49yrs old. Early retirement is afforded to officers who have served more than 20 years in the force. Once early retirement is granted, those persons would be afforded all the benefits and emoluments that would have been given at the time of retirement, age 55.
President David Granger, in the months leading up to the appointment of the commissioner of police, said that he was looking for someone who is unbribable.
He again repeated those sentiments at the Guyana Police Force Officers Conference in January of this year.
